Life Raft Cradles with Optional Stacking frames for Offshore Applications
RSS build and supply life raft cradles for our MES systems which in most cases are integrated into the systems, however we also build and supply stand alone deck mounted cradles suitable for all size A/B pack rafts up to 50 man capacity. The pictures shown above are cradles we designed and built for a customer offshore Mexico who wanted to retain there handrails without the need to cut them to accommodate the life rafts cradles. RSS designed and built purpose stacking frames that enabled the cradles to be bolted to a lower frame providing the height required to deploy over the top of the hand rails thus alleviating the need to cut and modify the handrails.
These cradles are supplied in aluminum and are light weight with a top drop down frame that releases the rafts to sea when deployed. Designed to be simple mechanical with limited moving parts to reduce the risk of failure to the lowest acceptable levels.
RSS can build and supply life rafts cradles that are single or multiple inclined cradles for deploying multiple stacked rafts, please contact us we will be happy to provide a quotation to build and supply life raft cradles in any design or configuration you require.
